Chapter 218: Sorry
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Although the hotel conditions were not bad, Song Jia usually stayed in luxurious hotels, right? It was really unfair for him to stay in such an ordinary hotel.
Lu Zhen thought that it was very likely that Song Jia was here because of her, and her mood instantly became even more complicated.
Song Jia put down his bag and looked at Lu Zhen. “Don’t you have anything to do in the afternoon?
Lu Zhen nodded.
“Then have a good rest.”
“Okay.”
“How’s your study progress recently? When are you preparing to take the exam?” Song Jia asked again.
“I’ve been quite busy recently, so I’ve been learning quite slowly. I’m going to
try to take the adult exam in the second half of the year, but I guess my results might not be too good. Just treat it as a simulation. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take the exam next year.”
“If you have any questions, you can ask me.”
Lu Zhen lowered her head, too embarrassed to reject Song Jia’s good intentions. “Mm, okay.”
The two of them had nothing else to talk about. Lu Zhen was about to return to her room when Song Jia stopped her again and said in a low voice, “Sorry about yesterday.”
Lu Zhen was stunned. A few seconds later, she turned to look at Song Jia. Song Jia was really apologizing to her for what happened yesterday? She was just an inconspicuous actress. She really couldn’t bear her boss’s apology. Moreover, Song Jia hadn’t done anything wrong. His intentions were for her own good. “No, I was impulsive yesterday. You did that for my own good.”
Yesterday, Lu Zhen also reflected on herself. In fact, even if she personally went on stage to film a nude scene, it would not add much to her performance. The reason why she was so stubborn about this was very likely because she did not want Director Ding Zhi to be dissatisfied with her.
In her previous life, Director Ding Zhi was dissatisfied with her performance and felt that she could not hold up many big scenes. In the end, he cut a lot of her scenes, causing the scenes of the female lead and the second female lead to be almost the same. That was why there was a controversy about the “double female lead”.
Perhaps she subconsciously hoped that Director Ding Zhi would be satisfied so that what happened in her previous life would not repeat itself.
This movie was very important to her. If she could use this movie to climb to a new level, she would become a rising star in the film industry. In the future, more big directors would favor her.
Hearing Lu Zhen’s words, Song Jia’s eyes softened and he heaved a sigh of relief. “Actually, I know that you don’t want to be special in the production team because you’re serious about your work. I didn’t think it through. I just thought that some celebrities who have filmed nude scenes would be criticized, so I didn’t want this to happen to you.���
When Song Jia said that, Lu Zhen felt even more embarrassed. “It’s fine. This matter is in the past. I didn’t take it to heart. I have to apologize to you. I misunderstood your good intentions.”
“You don’t have to be so polite with me.” Song Jia smiled.
After Lu Zhen returned to her room, she still felt like she was dreaming. Song Jia had actually taken the initiative to apologize to her just now. In Lu Zhen’s opinion, after a man made a mistake, it was already good enough that he didn’t push the blame to others. She had never seen a man who would take the initiative to apologize.
In her previous life, the two men she was most familiar with, Lu He and Jin Zhan, were the kind of people who would never apologize.
For example, if Lu He chose the wrong variety show, causing Lu Zhen to be criticized after the variety show was broadcast, he would not think that his choice was wrong. He would only scold Lu Zhen for not performing well on the variety show.
As for Jin Zhan, after he was discovered to have an affair, he even quibbled that the reason why he had an affair was because Lu Zhen cared too little about him and could not spare so much time to accompany him.
Song Jia was completely different from the men she had met.
In the dressing room, Xu Rui’s assistant, Mimi, was brewing some corn tea for Xu Rui. After making the tea, she handed the cup to Xu Rui, who had already put on her makeup.
Xu Rui held her cell phone in her hand and scrolled through the screen with a satisfied smile on her face.
“She does have a lot of fans, but there are even more people who hate her. Look, I just found a reason for those who hate her, and so many people jumped out to express their disgust for her.” Xu Rui tidied the creases on her sleeves and smiled casually.
Mimi knew that Xu Rui was talking about Lu Zhen. After Xu Rui and Wu Dai posted on Weibo yesterday, the trending topic about Lu Zhen not being popular with the production team and the entertainment industry caused a heated discussion among the netizens..
